Investor Insights

This summary was created by AI, based on 3 opinions in the last 12 months.

The reviews regarding Wendy's Company (WEN-Q) present a mixed outlook. The first two reviewers express significant concern over the company's high 7% dividend yield, suggesting it may indicate underlying issues or instability that could lead to future problems. They indicate a preference for more stable companies like McDonald's (MCD) instead. However, the third reviewer provides a counterpoint, asserting that the company is performing as expected and implies that investors should not be overly worried about the current situation. This suggests an ongoing confidence in the company's operations, indicating it might be a suitable time to hold onto the stock rather than sell or panic. Overall, while there are legitimate concerns raised, the performance outlook isn't entirely negative.

DON'T BUY

The 7% dividend is a red flag, can't trust it.

DON'T BUY

Their 7% yield says something is wrong. No. Prefers MCD.

HOLD

Company is performing as usual. Would not be too worried. Good time to hold. 

BUY

Had a great quarter last month: 7% increase in US comps, 14% internationally, have pricing power, and costs are coming down. 

BUY
options Wendy's is seeing huge calls, from 20,000 last month to 40,000 today at just one strike on Nov. 20. The stock and calls are moving higher. He bought calls. He bought and will upside calls against them as it rallies.
COMMENT
He fears that most fast food companies can't hold their gains because of inflation. Be careful with this as much as he likes Wendy's. They report Wednesday.
BUY
The street doesn't give this respect, as shares have been stuck in the low-$20s for 14 months. Today they reported a top and bottom line beat, including 16% same-store sales growth, and raised its full-year forecast a lot and hiked its dividend by 20%. And yet, shares rallied only 4%, still below pre-Covid. It's still cheap.
COMMENT
A recent meme stock that got pushed early last week to nearly $30, then sold off over $5 quickly. The meme people helped made rich Wall Street shorters, the same people the memers claim to hate.
PARTIAL SELL
Another meme stock. He believes in taking profits, being prudent with your money, even though the Redditters hate him for selling any of these meme stocks. Stocks are not a game and, yes, he understands risk. Bulls and bears make money, but pigs get slaughtered.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
They have a habit of selling off after reporting earnings, which is what happened today even after offering bullish guidance and big earnings and revenues beats. Historically, buy it after a pullback.
WAIT
Reports Tuesday morning. As much as he likes it, you need to see another quarter before pulling the trigger. This has a habit of declining after earnings, then rallying later.
COMMENT
It's been declining since late-October hammered in the current rotation favouring pure reopening plays (travel, not tech) and dumping 2020's winners, like Wendy's. This morning, they reported a disappointing quarter and cautious guidance. The stock 5.5% today to last May's levels.
WAIT
Shares have been drifting down, but when they report Wednesday he expects good same-store sales. Careful: this sometimes trades down right after good reports, then rebounds.
PARTIAL SELL

If it has done that well, take some profits. YUM is a place to take a date to in China. More potential to do well.

DON'T BUY
You look at this, not as an ongoing business, but what would it look like if they spun out Arby’s. Wendy’s has not been a successful company for quite some time. If he owned any in this group, it would be McDonalds (MCD-N).
